Does anyone else ever 'forget' about English?

[deleted]

Not actually 'forget' as we obviously have plenty of English classes throughout the week, but compared to my other subjects, I've done nowhere near as much work for English.
(If I were to compare the amount of work I've done for English this year compared to say, spesh maths, the ratio would be AT LEAST 1:10.)

If I'm doing work during spare periods at school, I almost never do English.
It's always one of my other 4 subjects.

Over these holidays, I was concentrating in both my maths and sciences, and I didn't touch my English books until earlier today.

English never seems like a priority for me, though I'll be interested in receiving my first SAC mark back when I return though.

And the weirdest thing is that I KNOW I have to do well on English, as it's the mark that has to be taken in as a whole.
(So even if I get say, 40,41,42,43 on my other subjects and 30 on English, that entire 30 will count while the 40 will count as 4.0 >_>)

Does this happen to anyone else?


EDIT: I was on 4chan before that's why I thought that Specialist guy was trolling (90% of the responses on that website are just basement dwellers' pathetic attempts to put you down over the internet lmao).

I apologize for thumbing down his comment though. o_o

My attention to English goes up and down in waves. At the moment, I'm on a high with my study.

[Sach1_K]

Yeah I know what u mean. Like I know I English is my most important subject but I'm giving the least attention but I'm still in yr11 hopefully by yr 12 my subject attention ratios will balance out. 
 I mean when try to write an essay i usually procrastinate or go YouTube instead of researching lol. And the essay gets done much less efficiently.

Aw man, English,

I don't have anything against it as a subject, but I find it so much harder to study for than any of my other subjects. I've done a fair bit of work on it this holidays, but when I'm doing English I procrastinate so much more than usual D:
I don't forget about it, it's kind of the subject I'm most stressed about actually. I have to work REALLY HARD to get good marks, in comparison to having to work kinda-hard to get them in my other subjects.

English is my priority this year.

[alondouek]

To be honest, when I was in year 12, English was the least of my priorities because I felt that it was easily the least interesting subject I was doing. I severely neglected it throughout the year.


Whatever you do, don't do that.

[Special At Specialist]

No. I'm only doing 1 VCE subject and I know that this will directly affect the university I get into, so I never forget English.

[Lolly]

You did all right in English, alondouek
